Picture Box Transparency Layers?
Aug 15, 2011
i got a large picture box sent to the back with a default image.i got a few picture boxes set to transparent and they are placed in front of that large picture box. these picture boxes have no images, just set to transparent in the properties.
I use the mousehover event on those picture boxes so when one is hovered over, it will change the image of the large picture box which is behind it.the problem is that even though those picture boxes in front have been set to transparent, when the large picture box behind them loaps a new image due to an event, it doesnt show through those picture boxes which are in front of it!

Is there a way of making a Picture Box have a transparency so that any objects (e.g buttons) that are layered underneath the picture box will be shown through?
Or if there is any other way of getting the mouse coordinates only on the form. So when the mouse cursor is placed at 20,20 on the form it will give back the coordinates 20,20 no matter where the form is placed on the screen

I have a 3 layer treeview and is using the code below. I am getting it to do the following,
1) If parent is checked, check all child nodes.
2 If just one child node is unchecked, uncheck parent node.
3) If all child nodes are checked, check parent node.
Code below only works for 2 layers. Would appreciate if you can guide me how to make it three. There are much information on treeview but most of them seems irrelevant =/ Will be great if you can show me a good guide on treeview control.
Private Sub TreeView1_AfterCheck(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As TreeViewEventArgs) Handles TreeView1.AfterCheck
RemoveHandler TreeView1.AfterCheck, AddressOf TreeView1_AfterCheck
For Each node As TreeNode In e.Node.Nodes
node.Checked = e.Node.Checked

I am developing a simple database with typed datasets. My employer wants to put two security layers in my database for a verifier and administrator. Anyone can change the database. But later it will be rechecked and marked as verified! and once every record has been verified, the administrator will append those verified records to the actual database. Can any bro devise me a proper method to do that? Right now what i have in my mind is that i put a verified and authenticate boolean in my database. For each edded/edited record, i mark/unmark that verified/authenticated entity as being set or unset. This approach is easy to implement and gives an option to undo any record changes but i'am afraid will compromise the database in space and time.

I was wondering if there is any way to manipulate layers of a psd from within a VB program. I would Ideally like to inserts just the psd file in and then once a command is clicked turn one of the layers on or off.
I know I can accomplish this inserting a jpg/gif for each layer and have that image be turned on or off by a button click, but I figured using the psd would save room and if something needs to be aligned differently I can just make a change in photoshop. Opposed to trying to realign the coordinates in VB

How would I go about doing multiple layers on a form?Say the first layer contains a command button that when its click, it changes to the second layer hiding the command button and showing the controls on the second layer?

Back in Visual Basic 6.0 and prior I could have a picturebox control and then have multiple images on that and using a gif file; then I'd have some images transparent. For example, I am trying to make a map where each country has it's own layer and the void is transparent so the underlying picturebox contains all the water.
However, in visual studio I've noticed the image control is now gone. I tried using a panel and a picturebox on top of that and it works but I can't use another picturebox on top of that picturebox, nor can I stack multiple panels with the same affect.

I want to create a game using visual basic 2010. I'm a specialist in VBA and Excel but not VB 2010.I want to display and hide a whole group of objects. In Acces I used for such cases the TabControl. For example in Tab1 the Game, in Tab2 the highscore and in Tab3 the options. Then I made it transparent, so that the Tabs (Buttons) are not visible, only the objects in Tab1 Tab2 and Tab3. With VBA I select the Tabs controlled by my own buttons (jpg). I tried the same in VB 2010. Without success.What can I do to switch between game, highscore and options without using popups. I want to display them at the same positions. So game objects and option objects should hide and highscore objects should be shown. And the other way round. Like the handling is with different layers in photoshop!

how you can get image transparency to come through in Visual Basic? Because if you try to put an image with some transparent sections on it on a form, the transparency turns into the form background colour (Though you could change the background image to whatever you want displayed under the image, but that's not the point) and basically I can't find any way to do irregular transparencies.
Alright, that's not very simple. I'll try to give an example:
You have an animated GIF of...say...fireworks. And it has a transparent background. Now say you have a few labels with text in them. When you draw the picturebox over the labels, the text in the labels is covered by the background of the fireworks, even though it's transparent. You can't see the labels. You want to see the fireworks exploding over the text
I can't see any way of getting around this, other than doing it in another program and putting the text and fireworks into one PictureBox. but it would be so convenient if it could work in Visual Basic, because you can control the text the in the labels and keep the animated "fireworks" exploding at the same time without using multiple animated images.

Is it possible to have transparency on a form but not on a button on the form?I know transparency can be controlled for the form in properties (VB 2005), but how can we isolate the button from being affected?

Right now I currently have an array of pictureboxes, and over them I want another large picturebox that has a sort of transparent fog effect. I created a png with this and made sure to save the alpha transparency, however when the picturebox shows up, you are not able to see underneath it. Is there anyway to fix this without using the GDI instead of pictureboxes? Because of the way the program is set up, I think GDI would be too slow for my purposes.

The 1st problem: I set the transparency key to a color and then set the forms background color to that color, and then set the background image to an image with rounded edges to give my form rounded edged. But the corners look VERY jagged.
The 2nd problem: Is there a way to make a form appear in the lower right corner above the task bar? Kind of like Avasts virus database definition update window.

Ive been on the same thing for the past seven hours now. Im trying to ether get the MDI child form title-bar-less in maximized mode, or now, get the transparency working to where the MDI child has transparency. ) This is for a home automation system im working on. major alpha stages. Hardware control works ;) but this stupid GUI is kicking my butt. So three options i have. In maximize mode on the MDI child remove the title bar, or remove the parents scroll bar so i can make the MDI child the size of the parents MDI window, or make the MDI child transparency work. Im posting a screen shot to show you what im talking about.

I have a 8 bit Gif, that is transparent, with controls sitting on top of it, all in a custom control. This part works fine. However, This control is a menu ring (appears around another control with a few options). The transparent part is over a Picbox, that is in a panel. The transparent part of the image seems to skip the picbox and go right through to the panel. I set the panel to a back color of RED. The custom control when its placed instead of showing the image in the pic box that it is on top of, it shows the RED panel I have made sure all my Z orders are right.

I search for a grand total of about four hours online for a method of how to get transparency working in labels in VB.NET 2008. After finding nothing but some example that I have no idea how to implement into my project, I have almost given up. Yes, I've heard about setting the parent properties, but in my case it is imperative that I have labels on top of a PictureBox. (Apparently it's not possible through normal means to have transparent labels over PictureBoxes.)I'm losing my patience with VB.NET, even considering switching back to VB6. How could Microsoft make such a stupid decision? Today I decided to use a stupendous workaround and instead of labels, use transparent PNGs of bitmap text. And guess what? It has the exact same problem as the labels when placed in front of controls! The transparent background has been set to the colour of the form's background!

I'm trying to create a program using Visual Basic .NET 2010 that alters the use of my media keys - Volume up, Volume down, Play, etc. All of the example I have found don't seem to compile quite correctly in 2010. Don't get me wrong they run fine and look exactly as specified but the problem is that the form cannot be edited because it claims the designer code is ill-formatted or something along the lines of that.
Can anybody possibly spare a project or form that has perpixel alpha transperancy?The only thing i want to do is show an overlayed png that has an alpha channel, on the desktop. The form border style will most certainly be "NoBorder"
